This contributed volume is dedicated to the subject of performance evaluation and benchmarking
of intelligent systems by drawing from the experiences and insights of experts gained both
through theoretical development and practical implementation of intelligent systems in a
variety of application domains. The chapters cover a range of applications such as assistive
robotics planetary surveying urban search and rescue and line tracking for automotive
assembly. Subsystems include human-robot interaction multi-robot coordination communications
perception and mapping Chapters also cover simulation support and open source software for
cognitive platforms providing examples of enabling underlying technologies that can help
intelligent systems to propagate and increase in capabilities. Performance Evaluation and
Benchmarking of Intelligent Systems serves as a professional reference for researchers and
practitioners in a variety of fields.
